Coming off a Calder Trophy-winning rookie season, Beniers has six goals and 19 points in 45 games. Worst of all, he missed five games recently after being boarded by Cole Sillinger of the Columbus Blue Jackets on Jan. 13. Beniers talks about working his way back into the lineup, and his current linemates of Tye Kartye and Brandon Tanev, in today's Kraken Reaction soundbite. KR Beniers Returns
